Hi every1,
Sorry I haven't been about. I've been concentrating on the Unnecessary Challenge and budgeting budgeting budgeting. I'm going to have enough room in my Halifax overdraft to start MBing again in about 10 days. I still haven't tried to get more French translation work which I really should coz my Mum said she will do the translation and I can keep the money.
I do however have 24.39 from my childminder who has refunded today as it's polling day and the school is closed. I'm going to pay it str8 off my LloydsTSB as this is the 17.9% interest debt (OUCH).
WELL DONE to every1 still going!! I love looking at peoples sigs and seeing how well they are doing. This challenge originally started as me and Annie doing a 3k head to head and spiralled through the fab ideas of every1 on the MFN challenge into this challenge. To think that I had smthing to do with this makes me really happy and gives me a bit of a warm feeling inside!!

Hi FDF - had a faaaaab weekend in Milan thanks! Saw the Duomo, the artist district, Bergamo and Lake Como, very expensive but well worth it! Mr EL loved it and was a very different birthday for him compared to last year which was very stressful.
Anyhoo - added £23.27 today from Quidco (although this has hit my account, it's not showing up on my Quidco earnings page??? Perhaps something to do with that weird error they had earlier in April). Also adding the £70 vouchers, taking me to £1,604.42.
Hoping to add more next week as should have quite a few invoices paid to me.
Well done everyone so far!MFW #185
